It was named for Leonidas I , the king ...The Leonidas Squadron , formally known as 5th Staffel of Kampfgeschwader 200 was a unit which was originally formed to fly the Fieseler Fi 103R Reichenberg , a manned version of the V 1 flying bomb , in attacks in which the pilot was likely to be killed, or at best to parachute down at the attack site. The Reichenberg was never used in combat because Werner Baumbach , the commander of KG 200, and his superiors considered it an unnecessary waste of life and resources, and preferred to use the Mistel bomb, piloted from an aircraft which released it and returned, instead. However, from 17 April until 20 April 1945 during the Battle of Berlin thirty five pilots of the Leonidas Squadron flew suicide sorties against Soviet bridges over the river Oder with little noticeable effect. History The establishment of a suicide squadron staffel was originally proposed by Otto Skorzeny and Hajo Herrmann . The proposal was supported by noted test pilot Hanna Reitsch . The idea proposed was that Germany would use volunteers as suicide pilots in order to overcome the Allies numerical advantages with their fanatic spirit. The idea had roots in German mythology that was glorified by Nazi propaganda. Hitler was reluctant, but eventually agreed to Reitsch s request to establish and train a suicide attack ... which said, I hereby voluntarily apply to be enrolled in the suicide group as part of a human glider bomb. I fully understand that employment in this capacity will entail my own death. ref cite ... River . These total missions were flown by pilots of the Leonidas Squadron under the command ...
